I PROMISE Student Leads Pledge

A student from the new I PROMISE School (IPS) at Akron Public Schools met the school board last night. Hanson Bittner was invited to lead the board in the Pledge of Allegiance at its October 22, 2018, meeting.

Hanson is in Stephanie Arnett's fourth-grade class at the I PROMISE School and loves science! It's his favorite, he says, because he gets to do experiments in class. Since coming to the I PROMISE School, Hanson was selected as the student of the month in September for displaying perseverance. Principal Brandi Davis says he never stops trying and is always striving to make good choices.

Hanson plays in Kenmore Youth Football and played basketball for the Kenmore Knicks. He loves to play video games and listen to music.
